Metaplanet's Bitcoin Treasury Hits 17,132 BTC worth over $2B

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has acquired an additional 780 Bitcoin, solidifying its status as the only non-US company among the world’s top 10 corporate Bitcoin holders.
The company announced the purchase on Monday, revealing that the latest acquisition of $114.4 million worth of Bitcoin brings its total holdings to 17,132 BTC. The newly added Bitcoin was purchased at an average price of ¥17,520,454 per coin (approximately $118,145), totaling around $92 million.
To date, Metaplanet has invested $1.7 billion in Bitcoin, with an average purchase price of $99,640 per coin.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $118,171, slightly above Metaplanet’s latest purchase price, with a 0.75% increase over the past 24 hours, according to Nansen data.
This move follows reports that Metaplanet intends to leverage its Bitcoin reserves to acquire cash-generating businesses, potentially including a digital bank in Japan.
Metaplanet consolidates as top non-US Bitcoin treasury
Metaplanet further cements its status as the world's largest non-US Bitcoin treasury holder with this latest purchase. According to BitcoinTreasuries.NET, the Japanese firm now stands as the sole non-American entity among the top 10 corporate Bitcoin holders globally.

Ranking as the world's seventh-largest Bitcoin treasury, Metaplanet now holds 17,132 BTC – placing it just below Trump Media & Technology Group (owner of Truth Social) with 18,430 BTC, and ahead of Galaxy Digital Holdings' 12,830 BTC. However, Metaplanet's holdings remain dwarfed by industry leader MicroStrategy (now rebranded as Strategy), which maintains a massive treasury of 607,770 BTC (worth over $72 billion).
Metaplanet’s success story
Metaplanet's aggressive Bitcoin accumulation has fueled a dramatic stock rally, with shares skyrocketing 517% over the past year and gaining 246% year-to-date. On Monday, the stock closed at $8.36, marking a 5% single-day increase (Google Finance data).

"We became Japan's top-performing stock in just one year, achieving record trading volumes and reaching a ¥1 trillion market cap," Gerovich revealed.
He emphasized that Metaplanet isn't merely following MicroStrategy's playbook: "We're developing a Japan-specific model adapted to local regulations, tax structures, and capital markets." The CEO noted this includes providing Bitcoin investment opportunities compatible with Japan's tax-advantaged savings accounts.
